Today’s silliness brought to you by the word copper.
Idiots are stealing copper ,while coppers try to catch them.

Oh, and it costs $0.013 to make a copper. Sell! Sell! Sure, Enron took down your financial future, but it’s back — this time as pocket change! You can make a 30% return each time you get change back!

Further update: The problem is not limited to the USA…
